Recenzii
“Not only do SCOTUS 2018 and SCOTUS 2019 concisely present and discuss major Supreme Court rulings, they also provide very accessible discussions of very complicated and timely issues. These volumes are great for anyone who is interested in learning more about the Court and the impact this institution has on American politics.” (Alison Merrill, Law and Politics Book Review, Vol. 30 (5), June, 2020)
